The part that confuses me right now is the following set of comments in the plug configuration file with respect to flash and nvram. Do I need nvram or not? nvram appears to be where my boot process dies. bootdir boot$CONF.out boot /arm/bin/ip/ipconfig /arm/bin/auth/factotum # /arm/bin/paqfs

I found something on a french Plan 9 translation site about dd'ing my nvram from my PC to a file in /sys/src/9/kw then building. This seems to have gotten me past the point where it crashes because it can't write to nvram, but it crashes all the same anyway :-) Marvell setenv bootcmd 'dhcp

Looking over my notes it appears the only thing I had to do to prevent the crash was enable my fossil FS's listening capabilities. Now the guruplug gets a kernel and an FS every time. Yes, if you don't make fossil listening on port 564/tcp, this error appear. It is a common oversight, when

Just got one of these today, and I suspect my problem has nothing to do with the guruplug and everything to do with the fact that I've never set up any PXE bootable systems before to mount a Plan 9 CPUAUTHFS service. I'm getting ktrace /kernel/path 0x60806f34 0x6095cf30 0x6095cf6d # pc, sp,
